Concrete Mixer

My mom got me what I REALLY wanted for Christmas!

Sending this 200 pound monster across the 300 foot ravine while suspended 200 feet in the air by a cable the diameter of a pencil made me a bit nervous.

In the background are the bags full of sand and gravel for mixing later.

We fired it up the other day and made our first batch of concrete, WOW! , much easier and quicker than the hand mixing of the last two years.

Thanks mom.

This time of year, the wind does the work for you...every few days we take a backpack and fill it up again!




We eat and cook with the best and brew the rest!!
